• seasoned panko breadcrumbs
• 7 ounce greek yogurt
• 1/4 cup shallots, finely minced
• 1/8 cup parsley, finely diced

Directions

1. Place 8 eggs in a pot and fill it with water until the eggs are covered.
2. Heat over medium-high heat until the water is at a rolling boil.
3. Cover the pot, remove it from the heat, and let it sit for 11 minutes.
4. Drain the water and rinse with cold water until cool.
5. Place the eggs in the refrigerator.
6. Preheat the oven to 400° F.

10. In one small bowl, beat the final egg.
11. Fill a second small bowl with Panko breadcrumbs.
12. Remove the boiled eggs from the refrigerator and peel them.
13. Take one boiled egg in hand and wrap it with one of the 2-oz. sausage chunks, covering it completely.
14. Dredge the sausage-covered egg in the beaten raw egg, then roll it in the breadcrumbs and place it on the baking sheet.
15. Repeat with the remaining eggs and sausage chunks, refilling the breadcrumb bowl as needed.
16. Place the baking sheet in the oven and bake for 20 minutes or until the breadcrumbs are crispy.
